Hello. Usually, a scientific question begins with How, What, When, Who, Which, Why, or Where.
What is your current question? Perhaps we can work on rewording it to fit the typical form of a scientific question.

Hello,
You've received good advice from dcnick96. I just wanted to add that having a question that begins with "can" or "will" often produces a "yes" or "no" answer, which is something you want to avoid doing. The goal of an experiment is to understand the complexity of a certain problem, and just having a "yes" or "no" question may not fully address these complexities.
Hope this helps
